Hey man, first let's get through more than one release of Age of Cthulhu. The second Age of Cthulhu volume is at the printer now, and we have the manuscript in house for the third. Once we've made a little more progress on these we can talk about a magazine!

I suspect that a better approach might be to have a single "Goodman Games" magazine -- whether it be Level Up or something entirely different -- instead of trying to put together seperate magazines for each game line.

I've been following the progress of TrollsZine, a free rpg magazine for Tunnels & Trolls. Also I've watched the progress of Fight On!, a magazine devoted to retro rpgs. All of these seem to be a lot of work by a few people and I'm not sure how many copies actually get distributed. I'm not sure that a Cthulhu-only magazine could justify its own existance in terms of sales.

Now, if you could combine all of the product lines into a single magazine and make it kind of like the old Dragon magazine from the 1980's, that might generate some interest.

I'll confess that I haven't read an issues yet, but I visited the link and scanned the TOC for a couple of issues and it seems to be mostly fiction or other electic articles. What is the primary focus for the publication? Gaming? Fiction? Any particular era or setting?

Protodimension Magazine is Horror gaming oriented.Issue 6 was fairly fiction heavy compared to Issue 5 that had 70 some pages of just WOD Setting Detail in it, in example.Issue 5 also had an article and a scenario for Cold City.Previous issues have had a Gumshoe adventure, COC adventures, more fiction, some miscellaneous gaming support and general articles as well.

We cover mostly Dark Conspiracy and Call of Cthulhu due to, that is what is submitted so far.

Check out the other issues and you will see a wider variety of content in each issue.

If nothing else it is a free publication so it will cost you nothing but some download time to check out our issues.

It does sound interesting, and of course you've listed off some of my favorite games (well, except for WoD) and that's a nice perk. I guess the TOC I looked at seemed fiction-heavy so I was curious about how they usually go.
